This is the correct definition.

The variable was not getting a node-set with the original syntax. When I 
switched the design to use the choose statement, this resulted in a 
node-set being returned and generate-id() complained about that. So based 
upon that I would say the original design returned something like I 
expected but in the reverse order of what I expected, and the design with 
the choose returned a node-set that couldn't be processed.

Anyway this did the trick with the addition of some exclusions to remove 
possible elements like div-simple and div-sub.

Thanks
